Explore An Untamed Desert Wonderland
Situated on the northern face of the Huab River valley and looking south towards the imposing Brandberg Mountains, Damaraland Camp is rated as the most successful eco-tourism venture in Namibia. It’s also big game country, and although wildlife is not concentrated like it is at Etosha, Damaraland Camp is situated where the rare desert-adapted elephant roams alongside gemsbok (oryx), springbok, ostrich and other hardy desert animals. Lion and black rhino are also sometimes seen.
This comfortable, friendly camp offers guided nature walks and game drives in one of the most beautiful wilderness areas in Namibia. And when you aren’t out looking for wildlife, you can set off on a mountain bike excursion or head for to Twyfelfontein – a World Heritage Site – to view ancient Bushman rock art.
Damaraland
Damaraland was a name given to the north-central part of what later became Namibia and was inhabited by Herero speaking people. Damaraland offers variety in landscape, wildlife and lodges, including desert elephant, rare black rhino, and many other species. Damaraland Camp is situated in the Huab River Valley, arguably the most pristine wilderness area in Namibia, 90km from Torra Bay in the Torra Conservancy. It is lauded as one of the country’s best camps, with sensational views of the surrounding desert plains, ancient valleys and soaring peaks of the Brandberg Mountains.
